Probably!
What would happen?
Perhaps in the early american settlement they got their farm land by a race between the inhabitant.There is a movie about it.
I haven't noticed the title.Perhaps a 70's or 90's western movie.It seems to be the fun race to choose their favor lands.
In fifteenth century, sailor Christopher Columbus discovered a new continent.
From that time, Europeans started coming there, killing the animals which the natives ate, bringing diseases, taking more and more land away from the native Americans. They wiped nearly the whole race out.
Question is: If an alike continent was discovered now; Would everything go the same way?
Those were the heretics on the North, too fussy to "stain" themselves. Not like rape was a more honourable approach, but just to be precise.
That's not quite the whole story, just one portrayal of it. In the end, there wasn't really a good or bad side. That view only really arises from hindsight, from people who were born far after the times.
For one thing - one might easily claim that there is no such thing as "rightful land" or "ownership". Who invented these notions, and why should they extend anywhere past a society where these notions are enforced by law (for instance, a new continent, or the native lands)?

I know that there were people, who lived by their own rights, had their culture. We came, and now they barely exist.
Who is "we" (how old are you)? Who determines that race has anything to do with anything?
Who invented the emotional (and cliche) quote "they are people/human beings" etc.?
I expect your answer might be "it's human nature" (who can possibly know this?), or "it's morally right" (morals are subjective), etc., instead of the correct answer "because I feel like it".
And most importantly, why should anyone have to care about these things if they individually do not want to?
Every single one of these many threads concerning Native Americans I've seen has been some emotional stuff.
Anyways, there are famous analysts in the past who explain all of this stuff.
